Welcome to QCMF!

On behalf of the entire community at Villanova College, I am delighted to welcome you to the 27th annual Queensland Catholic Schools and Colleges Music Festival. Our team of dedicated volunteer staff, students and parents, along with our College administration and sponsors immensely enjoy hosting all of our friends and colleagues from across Queensland and beyond.

The past 27 years of history has seen this festival grow from a humble start in 1991 attracting a total of 12 schools and colleges delivering 43 ensembles. By contrast the 2017 Festival ran for four days across eight separate venues, welcoming 99 schools and colleges from various locations throughout Queensland, Australia and New Zealand bringing with them 530 separate ensembles with a total of over 13,000 student performances receiving comments from nationally recognised adjudicators.

If you plan to join us at the Festival, please have a look around this website for information regarding directions and maps, the street parking situation, entry fees and all sorts of details. I’d also encourage you to download the Guest Information Sheet brochure which has important information for guests.

Thank you for your support of this important event in Catholic Education!– Mr Michael Jones, Artistic Director
